I don't have any issues with domestics. The new cars look great, but the cars are too big for me.
Some of us upgraded the clutch and slave. The stock setup is too soft and feels a bit numb, but that's because I'm used to the heavier feeling. Whatever it is, the Z has very good aftermarket potential.
You're welcome to come check out my car after you've tested a bone stock Z. Just be warned, though... once you hear and feel a conservatively boosted Z you won't go back
